After revealing that there was no final question on our written exam a lady named Anko literally crashed into the room through the window and led us to the place we are now, right outside the "Forest of Death." How I had never noticed such a place before was incredible. After Anko had thrown a kunai at Naruto cutting his cheek, this weird lady returned it and Anko had given us forms to fill out.

"Kami Mastui!" My attention was brought to Anko who was tapping her foot impatiently.

"Yes?" I watched her as she shooed my siblings from behind her.

"You will not be going with your team, your job in the forest will require you to protect your family and effectively get the scrolls. Good luck." Seiichi has rushed to me by now and clutched onto my robe in tears as Yoshi and Kiyoko held each other's hands tightly as they pushed passed the other genin. The gravity of the situation hit me and I wrapped an arm around Seiichi protectively as the other teams eyed me smirking. They thought I'd be easy prey.

"Miss Anko! Is it really wise to send children so young inside?!" Sakura's voice pierced my ears, but I couldn't help but agree. What was the hokage thinking? The woman waved us off as if she could care less and I glared slightly as Seiichi shook in my arm.

"A-Are we going to d-die big brother?" Seiichi trembled wiping his tears. I shook my head ruffling his hair before looking at Yoshi who was focused on me.

"We need a plan. To keep Kiyoko safe." His voice was hard, no emotion crossed his young face and I felt my jaw set. They were children, they shouldn't have to be put in such a dangerous situation.

"Seiichi. Consider this a part of your training. That is all it is. Yoshi, you may not completely trust me with our sister's safety or even your own, but I will die before I let anyone harm any of you." After signing my paper and gaining the heaven scroll and placing it in my weapon bag, I went back to my siblings.

"Kami? Are you going to wear your robe in the forest? Won't it get ripped?" Sakura had made it a point to move team 7 closer to us as she inspected my clothing and I almost scowled.

"Well my little blossom," I spoke through slightly clenched teeth. "I guess I should change then. Wouldn't want anything to happen to it." I let go of my anger against my teammate and untied my robe letting it fall off my shoulders revealing my black pants and ninja sandals. Rolling the robe up in the way you would a scroll, I made sure it wouldn't unravel itself as I pulled out a dark red tank top out of nowhere and pulled it on, ignoring Sakura's red face before tying the robe around my waist so the robe was rolled up against my lower back and the strings were tied to the front. Of course my original team, my team of siblings, and I were all starting off from the same gate. I didn't plan on sticking with Naruto and the others though, I had to get through the forest as quickly as possible to ensure my family's safety while also snatching the earth scroll to go with my heaven scroll. Rounding up my siblings, I decided to give them each something to help them within the forest if I were not able to help them. A snake of their own.
